Telecommunications Reform. Visible Results

By Enrique de la Madrid

In the knowledge economy, access to quality communications and data services at competitive prices is not only a necessity, but also a right which is essential to increasing this country’s growth potential as well as individual wellbeing.

This is the reasoning behind the recent telecommunications reform, which takes on every aspect of this key sector of the economy, proposing an institutional framework of independent regulators, as well as important incentives to encourage greater competitiveness, a reduction in fees and technological advancement.

Climate, land fertility and technology have made New Zealand one of the world's most efficient primary producers, with dairy, viticulture and horticulture among the fastest growing sectors.

New Zealand leads the world in pastoral farming and with 90% of all farm production exported, our nation of only 4.2 million are internationally recognised not only for premium dairy, lamb and horticulture produce , but also for ground breaking innovation.

The New Zealand National Agricultural Fieldday event is the ultimate connection to this industry. The largest agribusiness exhibition in the Southern Hemisphere, NZ National Agricultural Fieldays is the catalyst for the agricultural sector to network, providing the ideal forum for business to business decision making. Boasting industry representation, Fieldays is the definitive launch platform for agricultural industry innovation and technology.

Chile leads in Latin America, and foreign professionals come to visit the country: In these three places, the focus of universities has been put on mining business management, rather than on the technical. For specializing, France and England have been the most recurred.

Directors and CEO's from big mining companies around the world have one or more postgraduate degrees in the best universities for this speciality. Australia, Canada, the United States and Chile. This are the four countries that tend to repeat in the recommendations of experts, academics and executives of tmining companies when being asked which are the best countries for studying a postgraduate degree related to the field.

The Australian - WorleyParsons looking further afield

Engineering giant WorleyParsons is increasingly looking beyond Australia as new local oil and gas projects start to thin, with Mexico seen as one of its key growth areas.

WorleyParsons looking further afield

DANIEL PALMER

BUSINESS SPECTATOR

SEPTEMBER 13, 2014 12:00AM

ENGINEERING giant WorleyParsons is increasingly looking beyond Australia as new local oil and gas projects start to thin, with Mexico seen as one of its key growth areas.

In an interview at Bank of America Merrill Lynch’s Australian Investment Conference in New York, WorleyParsons chief financial officer Simon Holt indicated Australia was nearing the end of a huge wave of energy investment as giant developments moved closer towards completion.

“Australia has come off some pretty big projects and (while) there’s still some huge construction going on there, for us our earnings are greatest through the detailed design process and there’s no new projects,” he said.

Mr Holt indicated that most of the action in the Australian resources sector was now in the expansion of existing projects. Speaking about the oil and gas sector specifically, he said WorleyParsons saw “no new large projects” in the “foreseeable future”.

WorleyParsons has already become a major player in the growing energy sector in North America, with 50 per cent of its income now stemming from that region.

While its hopes are high for the US in particular, it also sees growth outlets in the Middle East, the Arctic and Mexico.

The company is moving one of its Latin American directors to Mexico in order to capitalise on new laws permitting foreign investment in oilfields in the Gulf of Mexico.

“They want to accelerate the development of their oil and gas fields, through (state-owned oil company) Pemex, and it’s about the foreign investment coming into that,” Mr Holt said.

“We’ve got great technical skills very close to Mexico that can provide services to not only Pemex but also to our current customers.”

WorleyParsons is the second Australian company in the past week to detail the opportunity in Mexico after BHP’s petroleum boss, Tim Cutt, outlined plans to bid on some of the 169 blocks on offer next year as a 76-year state monopoly on energy resources comes to an end.

“We’re very interested in Mexico,” Mr Cutt told Bloomberg. “We’re confident that we are one of the lowest-cost and best drillers in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico. We can build projects better and faster than most.”

WorleyParsons, meanwhile, also has high hopes for its advisory business as a growth driver in what has been a trying period for the sector, with the ASX-listed group this week spending an undisclosed sum to buy US-based oil and gas consultancy MTG.

“We are seeing the opportunity to differentiate from what our peers are doing in the marketplace and we are really wanting to harness that deep technical knowledge and capability we have in our organisation,” Mr Holt said.

“(It’s) a new market opportunity, one that’s actually still with our same customers but a different part of the organisation as we seek to move into that management consultancy. We’re really going to work hard to grow it.”

WorleyParsons would not reveal specific internal goals for the division, but said it could “quite possibly” represent 10 or 20 per cent of pre-tax earnings in the future. The division has developed out of the $90m purchase of infrastructure advisory business Evans and Peck in 2009.

The future of mining in Mexico shines like gold. Aside from the country’s experience as a traditional miner, its abundance of mineral resources and the fact that this activity remains as an important source of national income, employment and development, Mexico is one of the main destinations in the globe for mining investment.

The future of mining in Mexico shines like gold. Aside from the country’s experience as a traditional miner, its abundance of mineral resources and the fact that this activity remains as an important source of national income, employment and development, Mexico is one of the main destinations in the globe for mining investment due to its macroeconomic stability, ideal business climate, world-class infrastructure, solid legal framework and highly-skilled human capital.

A promising future can also be envisioned for the Mexican information technologies (IT) industry, where in a short period of time and thanks largely to Mexico’s talented and enterprising human capital, the country has earned a leading spot worldwide. Moreover, the IT sector has benefited from Mexico’s geostrategic location, close to the largest market in the globe –the United States.

These sectors are only waiting to be tapped by foreign entrepreneurs. “Eureka!” is what investors will exclaim once they discover the golden opportunities that Mexico has to offer in the mining and IT industries; prospects that favor the establishment of any new productive project.

Industry Exchange gives special thanks to ANZMEX for its support of the Mexico Shale Summit 2015

The event took place in San Antonio, Texas on February 17-18 with the goal of providing insight and analysis on the industry's opportunities and challenges in Mexico, facilitating information-sharing and the creation of new commercial relationships by bringing together the highest profile sector stakeholders. Given the current market conditions, the event allowed for a much needed transparent and honest dialogue about the future of the hydrocarbons industry in Mexico and the role unconventional and onshore exploration can play. The event reached 300 senior level executives within the oil and gas and related industries. During the two days, 43 speakers and panelists shared extremely valuable insight while engaging with the audience through Q&A's and extensive discussion. Keynote speakers included Dr. Edgar Rangel from CNH, Marco Cota from SENER, David Madero from CENAGAS, Javier Gutierrez from CFE, Carlos Cantu from Pemex Procurement, George P. Bush from the Texas Land Office, and Christi Craddick from the Texas Railroad Commission.

Despite the recent volatility in the markets, the Mexico energy reforms of 2014 have transformed the hydrocarbon industry and continue to attract international investors, many of whom were present at the event in San Antonio. The annual Mexico Shale Summit brought together government officials, oil and gas operators, and related service providers from Mexico, Colombia, United States, Canada, Argentina, Belgium, Japan and the Netherlands, as well as financial institutions, investors and vendors, who analyzed and debated onshore exploration and investment opportunities in Mexico. The event focused on the important regulatory changes affecting future operators within Mexico's oil and gas sector and the country's investment and development scenario. Timeframes and probabilities of how Mexico onshore and unconventional exploration will evolve and when related necessary infrastructure will be in place for efficient market dynamics to work were key to the discussion.

NZT&E - TPP Progress

Through New Zealand Trade & Enterprise (NZT&E), we are pleased to share with all our members an important update concerning the TPP negotiations.

TPP PROGRESS

PM John Key says the Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiations could be wrapped up in the next six months and put in front of the various parliaments of the 12 nations spanning the Asia Pacific. Speaking at his post-Cabinet press conference in Wellington, Key said he discussed the progress of the talks with US Trade Representative Mike Froman while at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, and that there was growing optimism a deal would be completed and could be put in front of legislatures to debate this year. “There seems to be strong feeling that a successful TPP could be negotiated in the first half of this year,” Key said. “There was more confidence the TPP will be concluded than the US Europe FTA and the view expressed to me by Mike Froman was that they really felt they were getting quite close.”
